Fury, who is champing at the bit to get back in the ring, has recently flirted with fights with Aussie sluggers Dempsey McKean and Jai Opetaia.

But Hearn has suggested the Wythenshawe warrior locks horns with the mandatory challenger for the IBF heavyweight title – Filip Hrgovic.

The 43-year-old told Boxing Social: “Say you’re playing matchmaker for Tyson Fury, and you look at the rankings.

“Imagine AJ fights Dillian Whyte then Wilder and [Oleksandr] Usyk fights [Daniel] Dubois. I’ll tell you if he wants, he can fight Filip Hrgovic.

“If he’s looking for an opponent, he can have the Filip Hrgovic fight.”

Hrgovic, 30, solidified his status as the No.1-ranked IBF heavyweight with a controversial win over Zhilei Zhang last August.

The Croatian clubber has knocked out all but three of his 15 professional opponents, a stat Hearn believes will convince WBC king Fury to swerve the potential bout.

The Matchroom Boxing chief continued: “Tyson Fury is smart, he doesn’t want a risky fight.

‘Hrgovic is mandatory for the IBF, but Tyson will say, ‘I’m not fighting him, nobody’s heard of Hrgovic!’

“But there will always be a line.”

Fury’s pursuit of a shock September showdown with Joshua fell through when the former unified heavyweight champ’s team informed them they intend to press on with plans to fight Deontay Wilder in December.
